From Trees Have Rights Too:
This year marks the 60th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Time now to address Planetary Rights.
Just as the humanitarian crisis of the Second World War gave birth to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights 60 years ago in 1948, so now we have a planetary crisis that needs to be addressed with equal urgency. Now is the time to call for a Universal Declaration of Planetary Rights.
What happens next is up to us. Our future can be a world where we live in harmony with nature. Our planet is in crisis, and the United Nations are uniquely placed to implement the necessary foundations to create a new world where prevention and protection stand hand in hand.
Trees Have Rights Too is a campaign to encourage the United Nations to take this bold and vitally important step. I hope you will join us in our journey to create our new harmonious interconnected world.
